Luckily it started snowing again yesterday, I read. But there was more than sufficient snow of good quality (not the snow cannon stuff) to have a very pleasant ski. The former years were less. Much less. So I'm not sure if this is a bad winter compared with last 5 years'. It is true though that the bottom altitude where it frequently snows in winter is moving rapidly up. Below 1500 m alt.: nothing. Only 10 years ago one could go skiing at 1200 m. It is indeed starting to show in nature, the way we all live. Exponentially.
